JESSIE MAY'S PROFILE ON RAWARTISTS.ORG "I grew up painting with my grandmother in the woods of Maine, and continued my painting education at many schools throughout Boston. This shows through in the way that I take on applying makeup, it is truly an art to me. I enjoy working with designers to create a look that defines their style. Well versed in a broad range of makeup application and technique, I never turn down a challenge to do something new, more bold or more creative. I've studied abroad in many countries, taking away little snippets of each cultures personal style and incorporated it into my own work."
